Manchester United play host to Southampton in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon looking to maintain the pressure on their rivals in the race for fourth place.

United are yet to lose in the top flight under caretaker boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, and the North-West giants continued their strong run of form with a 3-1 win over Crystal Palace on Wednesday night.

However, Solskjaer is currently having to deal with a large number of injuries, while United face Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League four days after the game with the Saints.

Here, Sports Mole looks at United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their encounter with Ralph Hasenhuttl's side.

Anthony Martial

Anthony Martial has been absent since the middle of February with a groin problem. Solskjaer has hinted that the Frenchman is not far away from a return, but the forward may not be risked ahead of the Champions League meeting with PSG.

Matteo Darmian

Matteo Darmian returned to training earlier this week and although not risked against Palace, the Italian may feature at the weekend.
